Unique Properties

The project is a wedding activity space exhibition, which is also an exhibition that subverts everyone's imagination. There is a very famous word in China, Haishi shanmeng, which means that you and I will make an alliance with the mountains by pointing to the sea. This love will never change. The site has a mountain range formed for hundreds of millions of years, and our pledge of eternal love is to associate this spectacle with our space design.

Dimensions & Packaging

The site is a resort public lawn area, irregular shape, with an area of about 1500 square meters.

Production Technology

This work focuses on the application of mirror material in space design. The mirror has a good projection effect, and the projection effect of different hardness mirror materials will be different. The projection with a certain wrinkle and distortion will make the visual experience of the seabed presented in the work more significant, and the mirror has a very good effect of folding or enlarging the space. On the other hand, the upper and lower double-layer device structure has a more shocking visual impact.

Design Challenge

The dynamic Abstract coral space design device, a coral blade concentric cutting blade, with natural wind or artificial wind can rotate the blade, the reflection of aluminum blade with rotating blade and dynamic light effect superposition, the stage effect is very shocking. For this idea, we have repeatedly done many experiments, such as whether the spacing of the blades and the thickness of the material affect the rotation of the wind force, and how the spindle can rotate and link effectively.

Research

Focus on the following three directions of research, 1, for the use of mirror material scene diversification, in the outdoor night scene, mirror material gives a beautiful answer, not only to increase the visual level of space effect, but also to simulate the shimmering naked eye effect. 2. The practical application of water curtain, the addition of solid water flow in the open scene, has a strong immersion effect, and carried out a series of waterproof, diversion and other technical experiments in public places, to ensure the complete presentation of power supply and water flow. 3. The dynamic Abstract coral device is a brand-new presentation of the design device. The natural wind and artificial wind can rotate the aluminum coral sheet, which can highlight the great immersion feeling of continuous bubbles and floating coral on the seabed.The visual expression of this installation is the seabed, which simulates the rising bubbles on the seabed, and the sun shines through. Light effects, shiny and dynamic corals on the bottom of the sea, and the top mirror surface is the dynamic projection of waves on the bottom. The most important thing is that a real water curtain is designed to greet the guests.

Inspiration

The design inspiration of this work is coming from the ancient and loyal word of China, "HaiShiShanMeng". The site is backed by a huge natural mountain which has been formed for hundreds of millions of years. No one can really try to do it before. We have made the pledge of wedding in front of the mountain and on the sea floor. Our space design is based on the wedding covenant at the bottom of the sea. Also want to present a real wedding vows.

Project Duration

The project was completed in Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province, China in 2019. The construction time of the project is only one day and one night, and the entire ceremony process in the space will be completed on July 21, 2019. Project location: Shaodaogou Village, Qiaoxi District, Zhangjiakou City.

Operation Flow

The work adopts the double-layer upper and lower corresponding structure in the open space. All guests will walk into a completely immersive space installation. The visual expression of this installation is the seabed, which simulates the rising bubbles on the seabed, and the sun shines through. Light effects, shiny and dynamic corals on the bottom of the sea, and the top mirror surface is the dynamic projection of waves on the bottom. Being on the scene is the most important guest experience of this work. The most important thing is that a real water curtain is designed to greet the guests. Each guest needs to distinguish between the real water curtain and the abstract beautiful crystal water droplets in this space, so that they will have a very perfect experience of being on the bottom of the sea.
